I recently purchased a Vauxhall Insignia and I'm looking for ways to improve its fuel efficiency. Any tips or adjustments I can make to maximize fuel economy?
ReplyHi Sasha, one simple way to improve fuel efficiency is to keep your tires properly inflated. Underinflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency by 0.2% for every 1 psi drop in pressure. So make sure to check your tire pressure regularly. Also, avoid aggressive driving and try to maintain a steady speed while on the highway to save fuel. Hope this helps!
Hey Sasha, you can also try using cruise control when driving on the highway. This can help maintain a consistent speed and save fuel. Additionally, keep your vehicle properly maintained with regular oil changes and tune-ups as dirty or faulty components can decrease fuel efficiency. Good luck!
Hi there Sasha, another tip for maximizing fuel efficiency is to avoid carrying unnecessary weight in your car. The heavier your vehicle is, the more fuel it requires to operate. So remove any unnecessary items and cargo from your car. Hope this helps!
Hi Sasha, one final piece of advice is to plan your routes and avoid idling as much as possible. Sitting in traffic or idling for more than 30 seconds uses more fuel than turning off your engine and restarting it. Plan your trips accordingly and try to avoid heavy traffic whenever possible. All the best!
